After finishing my first year of college, and more specifically my very first class of Digital Photography, the professor of said class asked me to work for him over the summer. I guess he saw something in me. Gladly, I accepted because, I mean, who wouldn't?

It's been an amazing learning experience. I acted as his assistant photographer during all of his shoots (hauling equipment, helping set up lighting, test shots, etc.) I've learned more than I ever could in a classroom and it's been fantastic. A short blog post couldn't describe it.

I'm eagerly anticipating heading back to the university this week. I'm especially excited to start putting all that I've learned to practice this summer during my Digital Photography 2 class and I'm also excited to start learning more about Typography and the basics of Web Design.

What else to share!?

Lets see...

I've done a good amount of reading this summer and some recommended books are:

Miss Peregrine's Home For Peculiar Children - Ransom Riggs

Quarantine the Loners - Lex Thomas

The Program - Suzanne Young

Boneshaker - Cherie Priest

Caught up on my inner-asian-nerd as well and watched through about 5 different anime series this summer as well.

Super stoked for Hayao Miyazaki's new film, The Wind Rises. Here's a link if you haven't seen it, www.youtube.com/watch?v=PhHoCn…

My obsession for Street Art hasn't died either and I've been keeping my practice up, excited to start doing some work downtown when I move back in to my dorm. A cool stencil graffiti-artist I follow, check him out, iheartstencils.deviantart.com/

And with that I'll be off!
